THE WOOSTER FIGHT SONG The Wooster Colts Will Ride the Side of Victory, We’ll Back Them Up With Spirit That Is Hard to Beat, Our Colts Will Fight For The Scarlet and White, And We’ll Go Far Because We Are The C-O-L-T-S The Wooster Colts!

THE CODE OF THE COLTS If you think you’re beaten; you are. If you think you dare not; you don’t, If you like to win, but think you can’t, It’s almost a cinch you won’t!

If you think you’ll lose; you’ve lost. For out in the world we find, Success begins with a fellow’s will, It’s all in the state of mind.

If you think you’re outclassed; you are. You’ve got to think high to rise. You’ve got to be sure of yourself, Before you can ever win a prize.

Life’s battle doesn’t always go To the stronger faster man. But sooner or later the one who wins, Is the one who thinks they can! Welcome to Wooster High School Wooster High School is a comprehensive high school located in the heart of beautiful Reno, Nevada. Wooster has a rich history of academics, arts, activities and athletics and is the only high school with the International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme in Northern Nevada. We pride ourselves on hav- ing high academic standards for all students, and having fo- cused intervention programs designed to help you graduate college and career ready. Our Vision - To change societal beliefs on what is pos sible in every single child. To help our children build a better tomorrow for themselves and for generations to come.

Our Mission – We aim to develop inquiring, knowl- edgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. We encourage our stu- dents to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right. (Adopted from the Inter- national Baccalaureate Mission Statement). I hope you find this student handbook to be a useful tool as you plan for upcoming school activities, testing dates, athletic contests, academic responsibilities, etc. As a member of our school, you are expected to work and live within the guide- lines outlined in our handbook. Just as you have rights, you also have responsibilities. Your rights will be respected, and you must respect the rights of others and meet the responsi- bilities of a Wooster Colt.

ACADEMIC HONESTY In accordance with state law, the Nevada Department of Education has prescribed an educational involvement accord to be used by all public schools in Nevada. The WCSD is required to distribute this policy to all Washoe County public school students in order to make students and fam- ilies aware of Nevada’s policy regarding academic honesty and integrity. The Nevada Department of Education’s “Code of Honor” policy defines cheating on examinations and coursework.

With the addition of the Code of Honor policy, it is important to communi- cate expectations for our students, parents/guardians and District staff. Likewise, it is equally important to keep in mind age-appropriate expecta- tions relating to this policy. As educators and parents, we will work to- gether to introduce and promote good work habits in all of our students, including our youngest. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact your child’s teacher or any of the Wooster High School staff.

As an IB school, there is a clear expectation that all students will perform academic tasks with honor and integrity, with the support of parents, staff, faculty, administration, and the community. The learning process requires students to think, process, organize, and create their own ideas. Throughout this process, students gain knowledge, self-respect and own- ership in the work that they do. These qualities provide a solid founda- tion for life skills, impacting people positively throughout their lives. Cheating and plagiarism violate the fundamental learning process and compromise personal integrity and one’s honor. Students demonstrate academic honesty and integrity by not cheating, plagiarizing or using in- formation unethically in any way.

See Wooster’s IB Academic Policy on www.woostercolts.com

WHAT IS CHEATING? Cheating or academic dishonesty can take many forms, but always in- volves the improper taking of information from and/or giving of infor- mation to another student, individual, or other source. Examples of cheat- ing can include, but are not limited to: • Taking or copying answers on an examination or any other assign- ment from another student or other source; • Giving answers on an examination or any other assignment to anoth- er student; • Copying assignments that are turned in as original work; • Collaborating on exams, assignments, papers, and/or projects with- out specific teacher permission; • Allowing others to do the research or writing for an assigned paper; • Using unauthorized electronic devices; and • Falsifying data/lab results, including changing grades electronically.

WHAT IS PLAGIARISM? Plagiarism is a common form of cheating or academic dishonesty in the school setting. It is representing another person’s work or ideas as your own without giving credit to the proper source and submitting it for any purpose. Examples of plagiarism can include, but are not limited to:  Submitting someone else’s work, such as published sources in part or whole, as your own without giving credit to the source;  Turning in purchased papers or papers from the Internet written by someone else;  Representing another person’s artistic or scholarly works such as musical compositions, computer programs, photographs, drawings, or paintings as your own; and  Helping others plagiarize by giving them your work. All stakeholders have a responsibility in maintaining academic honesty. Educators must provide the tools and teach the concepts that afford stu- dents the knowledge to understand the characteristics of cheating and plagiarism. Parents must support their students in making good deci- sions relative to completing coursework assignments and taking exams. Students must produce work that is theirs alone, recognizing the im- portance of thinking for themselves and learning independently, when that is the nature of the assignment. Adhering to the Code of Honor for the purposes of academic honesty promotes an essential skill that goes beyond the school environment. Honesty and integrity are useful and valuable traits impacting one’s life.

Questions or concerns regarding the consequences associated with a vio- lation of the Code of Honor may be directed to your child’s school admin- istration and/or the District.

ACADEMIC LETTERS Wooster High School awards an Academic Certificate to students who maintain a 3.75 GPA through the Spring Semester of their Freshman Year (un-weighted). Academic Letters are awarded to Sophomores who com- plete their MYP Personal Project with a score of 16 out of 32 on the four combined rubrics and those students who maintain a 3.75 GPA for two consecutive semesters at Earl Wooster High school. Students who main- tain a 3.75 (weighted or un-weighted) GPA for two consecutive semes- ters thereafter are awarded a pin.

ACADEMIC WARNINGS When a student is in danger of failing a class (earning a grade of C or less), an academic warning will be prepared by the teacher, indicating the reason for the poor performance. Academic warnings are prepared at the end of the fourth week of the grading period and mailed home by the WCSD. Dates of those mailings are posted in the first few pages of this handbook.

ACCIDENTS / EMERGENCIES School administrators or school police may handle accidents and emer- gencies. Students are required to immediately notify school staff of an emergency or accident that has taken place on campus. Any vehicle acci- dent must be reported to school police. Students needing medical atten- tion should notify the nearest staff member or send another student to seek help. Students should not leave school without permission and should report to the nurse’s office whether ill or injured. The parent, guardian, or other responsible adult will be notified to take responsibility for the ill or injured student leaving school. ADVERTISING Students/clubs/organizations wishing to display posters, place announce- ments on bulletin boards, or engage in any other form of advertising in or about the school, must secure the approval of Assistant Principal in charge of Activities. Items will be stamped for approval and posting on each of the hallway bulletin boards. Permission will be denied for the following items: (1) Advertising for outside events which are similar to an event on cam- pus the same night. (2) Notices of commercial venture for profit. Notices are NOT to be placed on hallway walls, windows, etc.; they may be placed only on designated bulletin boards in the hallways.

ALCOHOL, DRUGS & TOBACCO POLICY Possession and/or use of alcohol, drugs, and/or tobacco is strictly prohib- ited on school grounds, within line of sight of the Wooster campus, at school sponsored activities, or while riding WCSD transportation. Ath- letes who violate this policy will also be reported to the NIAA. Any stu- dent determined to be in possession of, under the influence of, or using any of the following substances is in direct violation and will receive con- sequences.

• Tobacco (smoking, chewing tobacco, snuff, pipes, e-cigarettes, etc.) • Alcohol beverages • Prescription drugs • Controlled substances • Illegal substances • Narcotics

Additionally, students may not have over-the-counter and/or prescription medications on them at any time. Parents/Legal Guardians must contact the school nurse if medications need to be monitored and given to their child during the school day.

AMERICANS w/DISABILITIES ACT (ADA) / INDIVIDUALS w/ DISABILITIES EDUCATION ACT (IDEA) It is the intent of the Washoe County School District to ensure that stu- dents who are disabled within the definition of Section 504 of the Rehabil- itation Act of 1973 are identified, evaluated, and provided with appropri- ate educational services. Students may be disabled under this policy even though they are not eligible for services pursuant to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 is a Civil Rights law which protects the rights of individuals with dis- abilities in programs and activities that receive federal financial assistance from the U.S. Department of Education. A child is a “qualified disabled person” under Section 504 if he or she (1) has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities (such as caring of one’s self, performing manual tasks, walking, seeing, hearing, speaking, breathing, learning, and working), has a record of such an impairment, or is regarded as having such an impair- ment; and (2) is between the ages of 3 to 21 years old. For more infor- mation contact the principal or the Section 504 Coordinator at the district office.

ANNOUNCEMENTS All requests for announcements must be dated and signed by the teacher or advisor and submitted to the Athletic/Activity’s secretary no later than 1:00 p.m. the day before. Student announcements are read during each first period. Copies of the announcements will be posted in the Main Office and placed on the bulletin board in each classroom.

ASSEMBLIES Assemblies are held in the large gym unless otherwise noted. Students report to their class for attendance, then go to the assembly with their teacher, where they will sit with their class. Backpacks and all personal items must be left in the classroom. We expect Wooster students to show respect and follow the directions of staff members. At the end of the as- sembly, staff will dismiss the students back to class.

ATHLETIC _FEES Students who participate in athletics are required to pay $75 a year in fees. Fees include: non-refundable $25 for the student activity sticker on their I.D., $35 for WCSD transportation to and from events, $5 for the Im- pact Test (a baseline test for concussions); and $10 Trainer fee. Students may also be required to participate in fundraisers for their particular team. Students who have difficulty paying required fees are encouraged to talk with the coach, the Athletic Director or Athletic Administrator to dis- cuss alternatives and assistance.

ATHLETICS & SPORTSMANSHIP Participation on athletic teams is determined through tryouts. Member- ship is a privilege, and athletes are expected to comply with all NIAA and WCSD rules, policies, and procedures. For specific information, see the Athletic Handbook and athletic clearance materials. Wooster students, staff, and parents are asked to conduct themselves in a sportsmanlike fashion at all athletic contests. Disciplinary consequences to include loss of privilege to participate or attend events may be applied if students as well as parents/guardians behave inappropriately. All school rules apply at athletic events, home and away. ATTENDANCE POLICY : Parent/guardians must send a note or call the school regarding any absence within three days of the student returning to school. Calls or notes in advance are encouraged. Nevada Revised Statute 392.122 is the basis for the WCSD Attendance Policy. The policy in its entirety is on the WCSD website www.washoeschools.net. The WCSD Board of Trustees has established a policy requiring 90% attendance for promotion to the next grade or earning credit. The emphasis of the at-tendance policy is on the importance of keeping students in school and providing access to the curriculum.

90% ATTENDANCE LAW (NRS 392.122) Students who miss more than 7 unexcused absent periods of a class will fail the class due to the 90% Attendance Law. For detailed information, please visit the WCSD website www.washoeschools.net.

MAKE-UP WORK Students will be provided with the opportunity to request and complete assignments, exams and quizzes that are missed due to a student's ab- sence or for periods of missed instruction for any reason. Activities that are participatory and contributive in nature may be difficult to make up and alternative tasks may be provided for such work. Failure to request or return completed make-up work and missing work that cannot be made up will result in a grade reduction for the missed work and the absence will remain unexcused.

Student’s responsibility to attend class all day, every day. A student must request make-up work from the teacher on the day the student re- turns from an absence. Students have the number of days absent plus one beginning the day that the teacher provided the make-up work to com- plete and return the make-up work to the teacher.

Parent/Guardian’s responsibility to assure the student attends school every day. Parents must communicate in written or verbal manner each day the student is absent to acknowledge the student’s whereabouts and ensure their safety. Monitor Infinite Campus to make sure attendance is accurate and to make sure make-up work is completed and returned to the school. Communicating regularly with the school and attending con- ferences related to student well-being and success is important in ensur- ing student success. Teacher’s responsibility to take daily attendance, record student as- signments to include the date assignment was made /returned. To pro- vide make-up work within 2 days of the student’s return to class , regard- less of the reason for the absence/missed instruction to the student upon the student’s request. ATTENDANCE—EARNING A DRIVER’S LICENSE: The Department of Motor Vehicles requires a Certification of Attendance (Form DMV-301) be filled out by the school to verify students under the age of 18 years old are meeting the Nevada school attendance require- ments. Students can have this form filled out by their grade-level attend- ance clerk. If the student is not meeting the school’s attendance require- ments they can work to set up an attendance contract with the school earn the verification. In addition, this form can also be used by the schools to suspend a student’s instruction permit or driver’s license or deny future privileges if the student is declared a habitual truant.

PRE-ARRANGED ABSENCES Pre-arranged absences must be requested at least 2 school days in ad- vance of the absence and should be requested earlier than 2 days in ad- vance if the absence is for an extended period of time. The attendance ad- ministrator will need to meet with a parent/guardian prior to approving a request for an extended pre-arranged absence. Students leaving the coun- try will need to provide additional documentation: eg. copy of the flight itinerary.

ATTENDANCE AND THE WOOSTER HIGH SCHOOL TARDY POLICY: Timeliness is held in high regard as it is everyone’s responsibility to con- tribute so learning environments are uninterrupted. Students who are late to class with a pass from another teacher, counselor, etc., are marked as EMI (Excused Missed Instruction) by the teacher. Students with no ex- cuse note will be marked (T) tardy as soon as the bell rings to begin class. Students more than 10 minutes late to class will report to the Student Ser- vices Office [SSO] to receive a pass and will be marked (T) Tardy. Exces- sive Tardies are treated as insubordination and the following procedure occurs:

The number of accumulated tardies will lead to a progressive discipline plan which is reset at the end of each quarter. After 10 tardies, the student will receive a “Round 1” consequence. This means a student who is tardy to ten classes in a quarter will receive a “Round 1” consequence. After 15 tardies the student is assigned a “Round 2” consequence. After 20 tardies the student is assigned to a “Round 3” consequence.

Below are listed the consequences for each “Round”: • Round 1 Consequence: Afterschool Beautification • Round 2 Consequence: Saturday School • Round 3 Consequence: In-School Suspension BUILDING & CAMPUS PASSES Students must have a signed pass in order to leave a class during class time. Students must obtain an off-campus pass if they will be leaving cam- pus during the day for any reason.

BULLYING/CYBER BULLYING/ HARASSMENT (Board Policy 5700) • Bullying: All threats, verbal assaults, and incidents of bullying on campus or at school-sponsored activities must be reported to the Stu- dent Services Office or school police. Bullying will not be tolerated and disciplinary action will result following an investigation. • Cyber-Bullying: Bullying includes cyber-bullying, which is defined as making threats by use of cell phones, texting, social media, E-mail or any other electronic or digital means. • Harassment: Harassment and sexual harassment will not be tolerat- ed; disciplinary action will result.

SAFEVOICE Students who engage in bullying or harassment in the hour proceeding and following the school day will be handled in the same manner as those which take place during school hours. This includes incidents that occur off campus during lunch and breaks, on the bus to and from school, and at the bus stop. Any student or parent/guardian who has a question, concern or would like a copy of the District’s Administrative Regulation and infor- mation forms for filing a complaint should contact an administrator at the school. Students, parents, and faculty at this school have access to SafeVoice, a tip system used to report threats to the safety or well-being of students. Safe- Voice was established by the Nevada Department of Education in 2018 to protect student well-being, prevent violence, and save lives. Students can use the SafeVoice tool to report concerns about their friends or them- selves with the option of remaining anonymous. Tips will be received live by communications specialists 24/7/365. Tips are sent to a team at Wooster and to law enforcement when necessary. Examples of concerns that can be reported using SafeVoice:

Bullying Suicidal thoughts Cyber bullying Neglect Violence Substance Abuse Weapons Harassment Depression Discrimination Threats Self-Harm

CELL PHONES & OTHER ELECTRONIC DEVICES (ADMIN REG. 5810) The District is proud to be a 21st century district, and we promote respon- sible and thoughtful use of personal electronic devices to support student achievement. Electronic devices can be disruptive and interfere with stu- dent learning, including the learning of those that are not in possession of such devices. Electronic devices should not interfere with the instruction- al process. Teachers and administrators reserve the right to confis- cate a student’s electronic device if it is interfering with curriculum/ instruction. Students may possess or use electronic devices, provided that the use of such devices does not interfere with the instructional pro- cess. Electronic devices shall not be brought into classrooms during assessments, semester exams, or other testing situations.

Each Teacher may have a unique cell phone policy stated in their syl- labus. Students are responsible for following the policy for that class and teacher.

• Consequence: First Offense The electronic device shall be confiscated and brought to the SSO office where it will be held until the end of the school day. The electronic de- vice shall be returned to the student at the end of the school day. The student must have a school ID or a driver’s license for identification pur- poses. A warning shall be given regarding consequence(s) for future vio- lations of the procedures.

• Consequence: Second Offense The electronic device shall be confiscated and brought to the SSO office where it will be held until the end of the school day. A parent/legal guardian must come to the school to pick up the electronic device. School determined consequence for ‘insubordination’ or ‘disregard for school rules’ will be considered and applied as necessary. A consequence such as, but not limited to detention shall be assigned to the student.

• Consequences: Third Offense Same as second offense in addition to a parent meeting will be held with administration to discuss concerns with the repeated disregard for school rules. Electronic privileges may be revoked for a period of 90 school days. Also, a consequence such as, but not limited to, afterschool detention, school beautification and/or in-school suspension may be assigned to the student.

• Consequences: Fourth Offense Same as second offense plus a parent meeting will be held with admin- istration to discuss concerns with the repeated disregard for school rules. Electronic device privileges may be revoked for the remainder of the student’s school year. The school will work with student’s parent/legal guardian to ensure the device is left and home and/or turned in to SSO daily for the remainder of the school year. Also, a consequence such as, DISCIPLINE As members of the Wooster community, students and staff members are expected to behave in ways that are respectful, positive, and that contrib- ute to a safe and productive learning environment. Disciplinary conse- quences may result for students who choose not to adhere to school ex- pectations. A progressive discipline approach will be used, and conse- quences may include those listed below, depending upon the severity of the behavior. Generally, the consequences will build from lunch detention to out-of-school suspension for students whose behavior does not im- prove. • Lunch Detention may be assigned for 20 minutes for lower-level infractions. • Afterschool School Detention/School Beautification may be assigned from 3:00-3:45 for more significant infractions. This may include tutoring, campus beautification or community service. Parents will be notified when afterschool detention is assigned. • Saturday School - Parents will be notified when assigned. This may include tutoring, campus beautification or community service. • In-School Suspension will be assigned to students whose behavior does not improve or for more significant infractions. Parents will be notified when an in-school suspension is assigned. • Out-of-School Suspension may be assigned for more serious infractions as determined by the WCSD Behavior Matrix or administrator discretion. During lunch detention, after-school detention/school beautification, or in school suspension, students must work on school work and/or activities related to improved behavior. Students may not listen to music, sleep, or engage in conversation with other students. Wooster High School rules and WCSD policies must also be adhered to. Students may be assigned additional consequences or out-of-school suspension. Habitual or serious offenders may be subject to arrest.

INDECENT LANGUAGE/PROFANITY (Board Policy 5100) It is expected that Wooster students will use appropriate language at all times when expressing themselves to each other and/or to staff members. Disciplinary consequences will be assigned for inappropriate language.

INTERNET USAGE Students are allowed to access the internet on campus , but must have their ID cards on them. Parents would have to notify the school if they have concerns with their student accessing the internet.

LOST AND FOUND Lost and Found items are taken to the Student Services Office. Items that are not claimed by students will be donated to charity at the end of the school year. DISTRICT LIABILITY All students are responsible for any instruments, books, equipment or oth- er items that they have on campus, whether they are owned by the student or have been entrusted to the student by the District or others. Please be aware that Wooster High School and the Washoe County School District is not an agent for any student and is not responsible for any loss, theft, or damage to any such items whether in the student's possession or stored/ left on campus or other school property. Students are encouraged to leave valuables at home, and to report loss, theft, or damage to the SSO office and school police.

DANCES/PROM At all dances, whether on or off campus, WCSD and Wooster High School rules shall apply (including dress code). Students must enter the dance by the midway point and will not be allowed to re-enter after leaving the dance. Students are expected to dance in an appropriate manner and may be asked to leave if they do not comply. Guest passes are only issued at two dances: Winter Ball and Prom. Guest passes are issued through SSO. Applications can be picked up from the Student Services Office [SSO] secretary, and the guest must take it to his/her school’s administrator for approval and signature and return it to SSO by the advertised deadline. Guests who are of high school age must be enrolled in a high school. All guests must be under the age of 21 and be cleared through the SSO office.

GRADING AND REPORT CARDS Reports notifying parents/guardians of their student's progress in school are issued quarterly to each student. The responsibility for determining the grade rests with the classroom teacher. Any student wishing to contest a grade must do so within three weeks of the semester or quarter grade be- ing posted. Grades are final after the third week of the following semester.

GRADES The basic grading system, grades 9-12, will incorporate the letter designa- tion: A B C D F and INC. For the purpose of computing grade point average, the letter grades will be transposed to the standard 4.0 scale; A = 4.0; B = 3.0; C = 2.0; D = 1.0; F=0. The grades S and U may be used in special classes and will not be included in the computation of the grade point average.

Additionally, students in grades 9 and 10 will receive a separate, MYP grade on their report card. This MYP grade will assign a value for each class based on four rubrics. The score on the MYP report card is a way for students, parents, and teachers to track the progress towards certain skills in the subject group and is not intended or designed to be converted to a letter grade. DRESS CODE Wooster HS enforces the WCSD Dress Code. The United States Supreme court rendered a decision in 2000 that school administrators can establish policies prohibiting conduct which materially and substantially interferes with the educational process. This includes, but is not limited to, inappro- priate clothing or attire. The Court noted that it is a highly appropriate function of public school education to prohibit offensive language or cloth- ing in public discourse. The First Amendment does not prevent schools from establishing guidelines to prevent the undermining of their basic educational mission. The primary responsibility for dress and groom rests with our students and their parents and/or legal guardians. However, the District does reserve the right to establish a comprehensive dress code with limitations for students which addresses what clothing they may wear and how they may wear that clothing. School authorities have the professional responsibility and legal sanction to enforce student dress requirements, and within this authority, the right to request that students change their attire to conform to the WCSD Dress Code. The following re- quirements are not intended to silence expressive conduct, but instead, constitute an attempt to maintain a productive, safe, learning environ- ment. As specified in WCSD procedures, • The dress or grooming of all students must not present potential health or safety problems or create a disruption of the learning envi- ronment. • Clothing shall not contain unprotected speech including, but not lim- ited to: obscene, vulgar, or profane language or illustrations; and, nothing that promotes an illegal activity, including underage drinking, illegal drug use (to include marijuana), domestic abuse, gang member- ship, battery, assault, or any other civil or criminal conduct which would violate state or federal law. • Clothing must cover the body from the chest/breasts to below the buttocks. This includes all private/intimate parts of the body, to in- clude the midriff. •

Allowable head coverings are those which are worn for medical or religious (e.g. hijab, yarmulke, turban) reasons. Students shall not • wearProper any footwear head covering must be that worn causes at all a times safety and concern shall notby covering pose a poten the tialears health or hiding or safety the face, problem. to include Slippers hoodies. and similar soft soled shoes are prohibited. For safety reasons, students are encouraged to wear shoes with a strap around the back of the foot. • Unless an exception has been provided by the school administrator (i.e. for spirit days, etc.), wearing pajamas, lounge wear, bath robes, or blankets is prohibited. • The District’s dress code does not extend to hair style or hair color. • Jewelry and accessories with extended spikes or studs ow which are of sufficient weight or length as to risk injury to the wearer or anoth- er are prohibited. • Gang attire and accessories. In accordance with state law, items that have been identified as gang-related are prohibited. WCSD school police, in conjunction with local law enforcement and other agencies, shall determine current prohibitions related to gang appearance, dress accessories, and activities and shall inform school administra- tors as needed. Prohibited items may include but are not limited to: altered insignias or graffiti; jewelry or belt buckles symbolizing any gangs; and Graffiti in or on personal belongings symbolizing any identified gang activity. • Wooster High School is prohibiting the use of earbuds/ headphones during the school day. Staff may confiscate earbuds/ headphones to be collected at the end of the school day. Students may have an earbud in ONE ear during the lunch period.

DRESS CODE CONSEQUENCES If a student violates the dress code, he/she will be given a warning by school staff. School staff will notify school administrators with the stu- dent’s name. School administrators will notify parent/legal guardian of the warning. The student must correct the clothing violation at that time, prior to returning to his/her class schedule. Refusal to change clothes will constitute insubordination and the following sequential and a progressive discipline plan will be followed: • First Offense  Parent notified;  Student must change clothing violation;  Student warned of consequences for second violation; and  Consequence/conference entered in student discipline docu- mentation. • Second Offense  Parent notified; Parent meeting will be scheduled.  Student must change clothing violation;  Student assigned detention, afterschool detention and/or school beautification;  Student warned of consequence for third offense; and  Consequence/conference entered in student discipline docu- mentation. • Third Offense  Parent notified; Parent meeting will be scheduled.  Student must change clothing violation;  Student assigned in-school suspension, depending on the consequence available at school site; SEARCHES In order to fulfill its primary educational function, schools must maintain discipline and order and provide students with physical safety and securi- ty. To provide an orderly and safe learning environment, the school must control the behavior of students and prevent the introduction by students of harmful, damaging, unlawful, or deleterious items onto the school premises. School officials and teachers act in loco parentis to students dur- ing the time students are under their supervision. The law, therefore, per- mits school authorities to search students, their personal possessions, and their desks and lockers under appropriate circumstances. A decision to search a student, his/her possessions, or any school property, or area as- signed to him/her for his/her individual use, shall be made in accordance with the following guidelines: An administrator, or school employee designated by the principal, may search the person of a student, the personal effects in the student's pos- session, or the student's automobile parked on school grounds, under any of the following circumstances: 1. The search is made in connection with a lawful arrest; 2. The search is made with the voluntary consent of the student; and 3. The search is conducted on the reasonable suspicion that the student has engaged in an activity which violates a law or published District rule, procedure or policy; or that the student is carrying, concealing, or sequestering material the possession of which is prohibited by law or by published District rule, procedure, or policy. If the search is made with the consent of the student, there should be a witness to the obtaining of the consent and to the search. The administra- tor, or other designated school employee making the search shall, when feasible, be of the same sex as the student searched, unless the need for an immediate search requires a search by an administrator or school employ- ee of the other sex. When the search is made by someone of a different sex than the student searched, there shall be a witness to the search. The search of a desk or locker assigned to a student may be done at any time pursuant to either of the following rules: 1. The search is made to maintain discipline and protect the students from the introduction into the school of offensive or undesirable ma- terials, or 2. The search is made on the reasonable suspicion that the student has engaged in an activity which violates a law or a published District rule, procedure or policy, or that the student is using the school property in the form of a locker or desk for illegal or wrongful purposes or to se- quester material the possession of which is prohibited by law or by published District rule, procedure or policy. Reasonable Suspicion In those cases requiring a reasonable suspicion as the basis for the search, the school official or employee authorizing the search shall have a reasona- ble suspicion that the fruits or implements of a crime or unlawful act will be found, or that a weapon or other material the possession of which is prohibited by law or by District rules, procedures or policies will be found. A reasonable suspicion is a subjective, good faith belief supported by ob- jective facts which may include, but are not limited to, the student's age, history and record in the school, the reliability of the information giving rise to the suspicion and the seriousness and prevalence of the problem in the school. The required "reasonable suspicion" must be based on facts relating to a particular student whose person, belongings, automobile, desk, or locker is to be searched and such suspicion must arise immediate- ly prior to the proposed search. The student does not have the exclusive right to possession of the locker or desk to which he or she is assigned and the school reserves the right to conduct searches of lockers and desks. Each student shall accept and use the assigned locker or desk on such basis. Students shall only use his/her assigned locker and desk and may not place his/her belongings or other personal property in an unassigned student’s locker or desk.

CANINE SNIFFS In an effort to be proactive in the fight against drugs, the Washoe County School District Administrative regulations allow for random canine sniffs for school hallways, lockers, classrooms, buildings, parking lots and other school property through the use of a canine unit. The canine unit consists of a qualified handler and a dog specially trained to detect illegal or pro- hibited substances, weapons, or bombs. Any vehicle that is positively identified by the canine sniff will provide reasonable suspicion for admin- istration and probably cause by school police to conduct a search of the vehicle.

FIGHTING Fighting will not be tolerated on any campus. Students who fight will be subject to progressive discipline mandated by district and school guide- lines. Fights between two or more individuals will be treated as mutual combat, resulting in immediate suspension from school. Any altercation, which is perceived as, or is a result of any type of group or gang affiliation, will be treated in an elevated manner and extra penalties shall be imposed. A second offense, which is linked in any way to a group or gang affiliation, may result in removal from Wooster High School and/or traditional educa- tional sites in the WCSD. Consequences for fighting may result in any of the following disciplinary actions: short or long term suspensions, and/or attendance at the Washoe County School District’s Violence Intervention Prevention Program. If a student does not complete the VIP program he/she will be assigned to in-house or out-of-school suspension for up to 7 days to complete the sus- pension. Respect is one of the core values at Wooster High School. Students should not incite or instigate a fight, ‘egg others on to fight, film fights, or post footage of fights on social media. Students who do so are subject to disci- plinary action up to, and including, suspension from school, and criminal charges, just as if they participated in the fight.

SECRET WITNESS: Students may report concerns or tips to School Police through and receive cash rewards from School Secret Witness by calling 329-6666.

SCHOOL POLICE The Washoe County School District employs police officers who are fully empowered to act as peace officers. School Police Officers may issue cita- tions and/or arrest students if necessary.

GRAFFITI Graffiti is vandalism and will be treated as a crime. Any student who en- gages in graffiti or vandalizes school or personal property may incur legal and financial as well as disciplinary consequences. Students suspected of vandalism will be subject to a search of personal items and locker. Any property suspected of being utilized in committing the crime will be con- fiscated. Students may not carry paint markers, marking pens, Sharpies, and/or any postal items used as ’slap tags’ to school as they are consid- ered by statute to be graffiti material; such items are confiscated.

HOMEWORK POLICY Homework is defined as any school work that is required to be done out- side of the regular instructional day, and includes assignments of short- term and long-term duration. Typical purposes for homework are prac- tice, preparation, check for understanding, and development of work hab- its. Assigned homework needs to be appropriate to the grade level, sub- ject area, and students’ abilities. • The student is responsible for the completion and turning-in of home- work when due. • The classroom teacher is responsible for the assigning, collecting, and recognizing crediting of homework on a regular basis. Each teacher will communicate to parents and students homework/makeup policy at the beginning of the year. • It is the parents’ responsibility to support the Wooster homework policy and to reinforce the value of homework.

• It is the administration’s responsibility to establish and implement the homework policy in accordance with the WCSD guidelines. Wooster High School’s Homework Policy is posted on the Wooster High School website at www.woostercolts.com

HOMEWORK REQUESTS If a student will be absent for a period of at least two days, homework re- quests may be made through the student’s counselor. The parent/guardian should make such a request at least 48 hours prior to the time the home- work assignments are to be picked up.

CLOTHING/PERSONAL PROPERTY/ATHLETIC EQUIPMENT All clothing and personal property brought to school may be subject to search by school officials. Clothing, backpacks, and other personal and school property, including lockers, must not have any words or pictures that promote illegal activity, including underage drinking, illegal drug use domestic abuse, gang member ship, battery, assault, or any other civil or criminal conduct which would violate state or federal law. School adminis- trators have the right and responsibility to ensure a safe campus communi- ty that is free of distractions and may use appropriate discretion when de- ciding whether or not clothing or items are appropriate for school. Stu- dents who violate rules and/or refuse to cooperate with staff concerning dressing appropriately or concerning the removal or confiscation of person- al property will face disciplinary and/or legal consequences. Athletic equip- ment must be stored during the school day and not carried in a backpack or on a person during class or passing periods. Baseball/softball bats, golf clubs, lacrosse sticks, etc., should be stored in the locker room, team room, in a coach’s classroom or other secure place. Please contact SSO if you have any questions.

EMERGENCY PROCEDURES During the school year Wooster will conduct various safety drills on a monthly basis, including fire drills, lockdown drills (Code Red and Code Yel- low), and earthquake drills. Students are expected to adhere to staff direc- tions and treat every drill as though it were an actual emergency. School staff will communicate information on emergency procedures to parents/ guardians via newsletters, the Wooster High School website, Connect-Ed, and other methods as appropriate.

LABORATORY & COURSE FEES Some classes require a fee for materials, which is not refundable. Refer to the Course Guide and course fees cheat sheet at www.woostercolts.com for more information.

LOITERING/ LEAVING CAMPUS AT THE END OF THE SCHOOL DAY It is unlawful for any person to loiter on or near the school grounds. Students are expected to leave campus no later than 15 minutes after their last scheduled class, unless they are participating in a scheduled activity supervised by an adult such as a teacher, coach, administrator, tutor, etc.

OFF CAMPUS PRIVILEGES Students who have earned an off campus privilege, are participating in an internship, or are participating in work experience must report to the SSO office at the beginning of the school year to receive their off campus punchout to be placed on his/her student ID.

PARKING LOT SAFETY It is a privilege, not a right, to park on a school campus. For safety purposes, students may not loiter in the parking lot or in vehicles at any time, including before school, during passing, lunch hour, and after school. Additionally, students are not permitted to en- gage in any sort of activities in the parking lot. Students leaving campus during lunchtime must do so within 5 minutes—students are not to hang out in their cars at any time. Off-campus students have 15 minutes to leave school after the tardy bell, or must be under the supervision of an adult while on campus (see loitering policy).

Drivers License: All vehicles must be driven by a person in possession of their driver’s license and registration. Students found driving without a license will have keys confiscated, parent/guardian notified, and stu- dents will receive a citation. It is unlawful for parents/guardians to al- low their student to drive without proper documentation.

Speed Limit: The speed limit on campus is ten miles per hour. Exceed- ing the ten (10) mile limit may subject the student to disciplinary action, including the revocation of the privilege of driving on campus

PARKING PERMITS To support campus safety, students are required to register their vehi- cles and purchase a parking permit from the Student Services Office. Parking permits cost $5.00. The parking permit is to be visible hanging from the rear view mirror. Parking tickets may be issued to those vehi- cles without visible parking permits. The school is not responsible for theft or damage to a vehicle parked on campus. Parking permits must be purchased each school year.

VIDEOTAPING OF STUDENTS & ADULTS (NRS 393.400) Creating videos or taking pictures of students and adults on school prop- erty secretly without their approval through the use of cell phones or other electronic devices is against the law. Students who engage in this behavior will face disciplinary action. Utilizing text, email, or social me- dia distribute the videos or photos is also prohibited and will increase disciplinary consequences.

NRS 393.400 Surreptitious electronic surveillance prohibited; 1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, it is unlawful for a person to engage in any kind of surreptitious electronic surveillance on any property of a public school without the knowledge of the person being observed. 2.

MYP CERTIFICATE • Participate in the last two years of the program (grade 9 and 10): Students who transfer to Wooster in grade 10 are not eligible to earn a certificate unless they transfer from another MYP school. However, those students are welcome to complete the other requirements be- low, as appropriate, in order to receive an MYP certificate of partici- pation and other school awards. Personal Project: Each student must earn a grade of at least 16 out of 32 on the four combined rubrics for the MYP Personal Project. This pro- ject is completed during 10th grade year. • Community and Service: Each student must engage in meaningful ac- tion and service throughout their time in the program. Students are required to complete 5 reflections on their service during each year of the program. Reflection forms ask students to think about their growth in the IB Learner Profile. Reflections are to be submitted at the end of each school year for a total of 10 reflections. The school provides many opportunities for action and service. • Successfully complete six of eight MYP subjects: While Wooster High School offers all eight MYP subject groups, students choose six sub- jects that they will pursue for the MYP Certificate. The six subjects are: Language and Literature, Language Acquisition (World Lan- guage), Individuals and Societies (social studies), Science, Mathemat- ics, Art or Design or P.E. • Demonstrate achievement on MYP assessments: Unlike IB’s DP and CP programmes, There are no exit exams required for the IB MYP Certificate. Students demonstrate their achievement levels throughout the 10th grade year on MYP assessments. These are de - signed by the teacher but scored using IB rubrics. At the end of the 10th grade year, teachers will use all the previous assessment scores as evidence to determine a final achievement level for each student. Students must have a final MYP achievement score of 4 (out of 7 possible) in each of the six subjects as determined by their 10th grade teachers or a total of 24 points (out of 42) from all 6 subjects. • Please note: Class grades are not the final determining criteria for the MYP Certificate. For example, it is possible -- though not likely -- for a student to earn a high score on their MYP assessments without earn- ing a high grade in the class.
